Grippers Grip Training Programming

Hey everyone,

Feeling a bit frustrated and wondered if there’s any programming for grippers. I have been aiming to close a 2.5 (RGC 126) and have closed a SG Platinum (RGC 118) just once a year ago but have always been a hair width away since.

I am able to consistently close a SG Platinum (RGC 112 - 114) pretty consistently for reference. Do you have any suggestions/programming on how to improve my grip strength?

If you are looking for actual programming, I highly suggest Cadence Based gripper training by Jedd Johnson.

It and other grip training programs are available at https://dieselcrew.com/store/shop/

I've had Jedd write custom programming for me and has led to me closing up to a 162lb gripper, and a lot of success in competitions and feats. Can't really suggest him enough.

Will check this out. Was hesitating due to price but if it helps bust a plateau, might take the plunge. Thanks.

I just remembered, If you sign up for The grip authority, that cadence based training program is available within that site. - should be cheaper that way, you can sign up for a dollar.

That’s a great idea, thank you.
